April 2015 - Community of Cape St. Claire
Cape St. Claire Improvement Association, Inc. Community Newsletter April 2015 Quarterly Meeting April 28th • 7:30PM • Clubhouse President’s Message Dear Fellow Capers, Spring has arrived and brought us one last snow storm on March 20th, hopefully for the last time. April is a great time for us Capers to get back outside with warming temperatures, tend to our yards and attend the many community activities on the calendar. As we reenter the busy season in the community, I want to take a minute, while you sit right there, and tell you how we work in Cape St. Claire. Cape St. Claire is an unincorporated community with a 65 year history located on the Broadneck Peninsula, in Anne Arundel County. The River Bay Company platted the community of Cape St. Claire incorporating their previous attempt of selling lots in a community named Persimmon Point. On June 14, 1949 the River Bay Company officially created the Cape St. Claire Club to manage the affairs of the community. The first Board of Governors meeting of the Cape St. Claire Club was held on June 30th, 1949. Later the Cape St. Claire Club was renamed in 1959 to the Cape St. Claire Improvement Association, Inc. (CSCIA or the Association). In our 65 year history we have gone from a rural, sleepy summertime beach community for those in the Baltimore and Washington DC area to one of the largest Covenanted Communities in Anne Arundel County and the State of Maryland. Cape St. Claire now consists of 2,302 homes and more than 7,800 residents as of the start of the year, including a Commercial Shopping Center that helps give our big community a small town feel. The Community of Cape St. Claire is an economically diverse community, where you can see blue collar and white collar workers living together in a cohesive community amongst a variety of homes from the original beach cottages to the mini-mansions along River Bay Road facing the Chesapeake Bay at the mouth of the Magothy River, that meander through more than 26.4 miles of Anne Arundel County serviced roads, while covering an area roughly 2.5 sq. miles. We are serviced by the Anne Arundel County Public Schools with both Cape St. Claire Elementary School and Broadneck Senior High being located in our Community while our kids are bused to Magothy Middle School in Arnold. In the community of Cape St. Claire, Covenants and community property are administered by The Cape St. Claire Improvement Association, which is tasked with the following through our By-Laws: 1. To carry on and promote any activity which may add to the convenience and attractiveness of the community known as Cape St. Claire. 2. To promote, develop and maintain a cooperative community at Cape St. Claire.

To secure compliance with and to prevent violation of the restrictions on property use designated in deeds executed by the River Bay Company. With this direction, the Board of Governors (BOG) is served by 9 elected volunteer members, who oversee the operation and continuance of the Association and their duties. We have core responsibilities as an organization to enforce our Covenants as best possible given current codes and laws within Anne Arundel County and the State of Maryland. This means we act as liaison between Anne Arundel County and the residents in order to navigate the many agencies within the Anne Arundel County Government and State of Maryland we must work with to enforce our Covenants and policies. In some cases this also includes the use of the Courts in the County and State to ensure compliance. The BOG of the CSCIA is tasked with overseeing, managing and improving the more than 30 acres of property owned by the Association. This includes our beaches & parks, our clubhouse, our boat ramp marina and two other piers that contain more than 200 rental slips available to Cape St. Claire Residents. It also include the Crabbing & Fishing Pier, Lake Claire and its surrounding creeks & woods, a few other small parks and lots within the Cape, along with the ownership of the Cape St. Claire Shopping Center property, aside from the buildings themselves that are owned by individual business owners. The CSCIA collects and manages revenues generated through a variety of sources, not limited to our maintenance fees, rentals from our clubhouse & pier slips, advertising in the Caper, our 10 times a year published newsletter and our Special Community Benefit District, which was formed in 1989. These revenues helps us maintain & improve the community, its property, our safety and defend our covenants as applicable. We also have one fulltime employee and between 7 and 15 part-time employees depending on the season of the year. We hold monthly BOG meetings, quarterly membership meetings with an Annual Meeting in January, where the membership elects volunteer members to serve the Board of Governors and approves our Annual Budgets. You might be asking yourself why I have provided all this information. To those of us that have lived here for 30 years or may be just moved in, by the way welcome to the Cape, we hope you get a better sense of how our community works. Lastly, for those that continue to believe they are exempt property owners from the Covenants that are deeded to all properties in the community, the policies created by the CSCIA, and our attempts to enforce both, please feel free to find all our current documents online via our website, www.cscia.org to refresh yourself with what you signed when closing on your purchased property in Cape St. Claire. All of this is important but it is also important to review what we do monthly, quarterly, and annually. I want to bring your attention to April 2014 President’s Message I wrote, which you can find on our website under the Caper section. The message I provided was the highlight of the March 2014 BOG meeting in which we developed a priority list for the Association to work on both short term and long term projects. Here are the updates one year later as to where we stand regarding this action items. 1. Erosion Control: Lake Claire Restoration continues via the grant we received and extended this past year. The big news is our progress towards the unprecedented Capital Improvement Project we embarked on and was passed on this past Annual Meeting to be effective with in fiscal year 2016. The leg work has begun on the Beach Restoration and Renovation Project, as we meet with bankers and start the proposal process. This is a long term project, but is in progress. 2. Improvements to the Clubhouse: Maintenance and upgrades continue, but we are going to have look at a more comprehensive plan to follow in addresses some long standing needs. We will provide more information in the near future as this is ongoing and long term in nature. 3. Capital Improvements to our Beaches & Parks outside of erosion: We completed Phase 1 of our Main Beach Renovation, which was our pervious paver walkway from the gates toward the beach. Even though some dubbed this our “Path to Nowhere”, we will begin Phase 2 and hope to complete prior to the Strawberry Festival. This will allow able and non-able bodied residents to reach the top of the beach via a walkway. Phase 3 of the project will be slated for 2016, where we hope to connect the beach with safer and more environmentally friendly paths replacing the old concrete paths of the 1950’s. We will also connect the overlook with an extension of the walkway. 4. Technology and Communications for the Association: First and foremost we have an updated and more user friendly website. We have begun increasing our technical capabilities with file sharing and recently scanned all our meeting minutes from 1949-1972, allowing more searchable documents and back-up April 2015 Page 2 President’s Message continued….. copies in case of a flood or fire. We will continue upgrades in 2015, including looking at online payment systems for the signboard, clubhouse, and eventually the piers and annual lot maintenance fees. Lastly we are looking for better communication with the entire community in multiple formats. We have utilized our website and Facebook Page for more timely and frequent communication on top of our regular Caper issues. 5. A long term Capital Improvement and Budget Plan for our Piers and Marina’s: A plan was proposed, passed and now awaits implementation later this calendar year as we collect Special Assessment Fess from current slip holders to begin repairing and upgrading our piers over a five year period. You can see we continue our progress, improving and providing services day in and out to the community and its residents. The Association will have a presence at the Strawberry Festival again this year and have a suggestion box for your ideas. You can also email me at [email protected] for feedback, new ideas, and if you want to volunteer in the community! We are always looking for volunteers for a variety of projects. Remember also to pay your lot maintenance fees which were due on March 1st, stickers are effective as of May 1st and towing checks will begin this month, if you don’t have your new stickers, contact the office. Lastly, it’s April and the Cape St. Claire Road Expansion Project is restarting again, Déjà vu? This will require patience, planning and staying informed about the project schedule through our website, Facebook and the Anne Arundel County Department of Public Works. As we get updates, we will work on getting you timely information. I look forward to seeing you around the Cape as the weather warms. Best wishes, Beau Breeden 2015-2016 Stickers should be displayed on vehicles May 1st April 2015 Page 3 Board in brief MARCH 9, 2015 President Breeden called the meeting to order at 7:25 P.M. He noted that there would be a closed session at the end of the meeting. He thanked Rusty Rucks of Quality Care Automotive for plowing all of the Cape lots over the past three storms. He said things are running smoothly and maintenance fees are coming in. We did okay through the snowstorms although there were some sidewalk clearing issues. He noted that there are town hall meetings coming up with Steve Schuh regarding the County budget, and dates and times will be on line, and he noted the Goshen Farm open house scheduled for March 21 from 11 A.M to 4 P.M. The minutes of February 9, 2015 were approved. The final Profit & Loss statement of January 31, 2015 was approved. COMMITTEE REPORTS: Beaches and Parks: Governor Dembowski has met with two contractors regarding phase 2 of the Main Beach walkway project. He noted that a pothole at Deep Creek boat ramp will need repair once the ground thaws and asked people to keep an eye out for other paving problems. Ads for hiring beach attendants have gone out, and random to wing patrols will begin on Aril 1. The final B&P policy will be posted on line this week and new signs will be made. He has signed up for Sandy Point’s Twitter feed to monitor conditions and closings there. Communications and Technology: Governor Szczytko said that the minutes from 1949 through 1974 have all been digitized and are on line. He has created a blog post for future reference, especially regarding snow conditions, is working on the CSC Watch web page, and has started on a Strawberry Festival web page. Treasurer: Governor Myers said that we have received the first installment of SCBD money. Expenditures and income are still consistent with expectations. Events: Governor Myers will be applying for 4th of July permits and will begin planning an April beach bonfire. Erosion Control: Governor Vaccaro has met with Arlington Echo regarding work on the hillside at Deep Creek. There is also grant money to pay for ivy removal.

The Friends of Lake Claire have met to begin drawing up bylaws, a mission statement, and is considering a new, more inclusive name for the group. Piers: Governor Small said that slip contracts are still coming in. He is talking with BG&E about a separate meter for the slips. It was also noted how expensive it was to run the bubbler system this winter. Governor Breeden noted that he and Governor Small have updated the move and wait lists, identified available mud slips for 2015, and began discussion with the Piers Committee about special assessment projects and board replacement, removal of the bubbler system prior to April 1, and reviewing dredging and other long term needs. Roads: Governor Breeden said there is no new information from the County regarding the road or water project. Covenants: Governor Snow’s report noted that just a few complaints have come in, mainly dealing with snow on sidewalks. Clubhouse: Governor Lamb’s report noted that she is still working with an electrician to finish outside lighting. Clubhouse rentals are steady. And she again thanked Rusty for plowing our lots. Strawberry Festival: Governor Lamb’s report said that planning is going well and vendors and entertainment are in place. The Easter Egg Hunt is the next big event and tickets are available at Whimsicality. Caper: Governor Lamb’s report said that the 60th anniversary issue was big hit. Signboard: Governor Lamb’s report said the new system was working well. BCC: Governor Breeden’s report stated that there had been a public meeting with Michael Peroutka discussing a variety of issues. BLOA: Governors Breeden’s report said there were no updates as of now. Building: Governor Breeden reported that we have incoming permits with about a two week turnaround. Security: Governor Breeden reported that, other than some major damage to a Clubhouse fence, things have been quiet. He noted there is an upcoming heroin town hall on March 25. April 2015 Page 4 board in brief continued….. OLD BUSINESS: The paperwork for mosquito spraying is being submitted this week. There was discussion of the County testing our beaches for water quality. NEW BUSINESS: The Friends of Lake Claire have been discussing becoming a non-profit entity affiliated with the CSCIA in order to apply directly for grant money. There was discussion of how that entity would work with the Board. Regarding the vacancies on the Board and on the Budget Committee, Governor Breeden said the plan is to have interested parties run at the April Membership meeting. Governor Breeden is looking for a speaker for the April meeting. Governor Breeden will put out an update on road work once he hears from the County. Administrator Leslie Coble said that many of the slip contracts are coming in without the $55 special assessment. It was decided that there would be a parking sticker pickup day at the Clubhouse on March 29, from 1 to 4 P.M., to try and save the Cape some postage costs. It will be noted on the website and the Facebook page. ADJOURNMENT: The meeting was adjourned to a closed session at 8:14 P.M.

April 2015 Page 7 April 2015 Page 8 Garden Club Well, I don’t think I would be too out of line if I said I think most folks will be happy to bid winter adieu. A few weeks ago, it was warmer in Dutch Harbor, Alaska than it was in Cape! I’m sure the plants are getting as anxious to burst forth as gardeners are to welcome them. If you want to get a good deal on some of these plants, be sure to attend our club’s ANNUAL PLANT SALE on May 16, from 8 a.m. until 2:00 p.m. at the corner of Broadview and Cape St. Claire Road. By “annual” we mean “yearly”. We will have many annuals, of course, but also hand-picked native perennials from members’ gardens, tomatoes, herbs and vegetables and hanging baskets. These plants are healthy and gorgeous and proven winners in Cape St. Claire – and the prices are terrific! Do check us out – our members are friendly and helpful and gorgeous, too! Speaking of members, the club wants to congratulate our new president, Katie Scott-Kelly, on the brink of becoming an Anne Arundel County Watershed Steward! Hours of studying, classes and labor are required to achieve this certification – great job, Katie! The Garden Club boasts several Watershed Stewards as well as Master Gardeners. These folks are very knowledgeable about this region’s plants and waterways; come to one of our meetings and get to know them! Meetings are the first Tuesday of the month at 7:00 p.m. at the Cape Clubhouse. All are welcome. Happy garden dreaming!

Admission is free and we will welcome your donation. The History of Goshen Farm For a change of pace, we would like to start sharing some of the history of Goshen Farm in this column. It is rich and fascinating. The following is a list of some of significant dates and events in the Goshen Farm’s 230 year history. Over the next year, we will elaborate on each event and the surrounding times. In 1783, the Farm House was built by John Pettibone Gardiner who was born in Maryland in 1750. The Farm House was built in the traditional federalist style with two rooms downstairs and two rooms upstairs, each with a fireplace for heat. Goshen Farm first appeared in the tax records of Anne Arundel County in 1798 under the name of Richard Pettibone Gardiner who was likely the son of John Gardiner. At that time the farm was over 200 acres. In 1853, Henry Tydings purchased the house and the remaining 179 acres at auction. There were slave quarters on the property, which he had moved up and attached to the original house to serve as a kitchen. At the time, Henry’s property was bordered on two sides by property owned by Alfred Stinchcomb and William Stinchcomb it two separate parcels according to the U.S. Indexed County Land Ownership Maps of Anne Arundel County, 1878. In 1911, Mary Tydings Brice, the fourth child of Henry and Margaret Tydings, inherited Goshen Farm. She was 41 years old and at the time was living with her son, Richard, and her daughter-in-law, Alice. The house and farm were purchased in 1935 by Edwin and Lillian Agermans and their stay was short as it was with the next two owners of Goshen Farm. In 1939, Roland Edgar Bell purchased the farm and lived there for approximately four years, and in 1941 Goshen Farm was purchased by the Jondreau Family. About a year and a half later, Dr. Morris Leon Radoff and his wife, May, bought the farm. At the encouragement of Orlando “Lanny” Ridout, Dr. Radoff had the house put on the Maryland Registry of Historic Places in 1975. Dr. Radoff died of a stroke at home in 1977 and May passed away in 1991. More about the Radoff’s and their time at Goshen Farm in future articles. In 2006, the Goshen Farm Preservation Society was form to protect, preserve, and restore this remarkable historic gem in the midst of our community and we appreciate your help and support.
